The result of the move request was: Not moved ( non-admin closure) ( t · c) buidhe 22:03, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

Mbhongo – Out of all the pointless move requests, this is one of the most pointless. There is zero proof this place was ever called 'Allemansdrift'. The sources I have say this place was called Almansdrift B. I struggle to understand why a bold move was reversed to a name that it was never called. Name was changed in 2003 and official/academic sources use the new name. Was unable to find much written about it.

ngrams are weak evidenceappears to be based on a misunderstanding. Ngrams currently show data up to 2019, so if a change of name took place in 2020 or later, Ngrams are very weak evidence in support of a name. But if the name was changed in 2003, it is highly significant that Ngrams do not show any results at all for Mbhongo, but show a usage of Allemansdrift from 1870 to 2016.-- Toddy1 (talk) 18:46, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
